- For this project we used GRANITE GRIP , CONCRETE BOND PRIMER AND CONCRETE STRIPPER all from BEHR PRODUCTS. the surface must have clean properly , sand it out if needed? otherwise it will not bond securely?

Muy bonito, me encantó
The result came out so nice. This color will match my siding.
this color is most people buy
You goin viral with this one
I like it Thanks !
Thanks for checking it out!
Nice job. It's a blue-gray.
👏...👍👍...✌️.
Good job! Your project turned out very nice. Is the color you used mineral gray? It looks a little bluish than regular gray.
Thanks for checking out! I think it was just gray but ill confirm it soon as I already throw it out the can .
sorry for late reply , so the color I used here was just the gray650
@@filcandiyHow has the colour and wear & tear held up a year later? Would you use it again?
@@HamiltonRb beautiful color. the grey one is the best choice. going 2, years still looks good 😊
@@filcandiy Thanks, I have read mixed reviews, and I think it is all in the prep Glad to hear it worked well for you
6/6/2024 - Did you have the paint tinted to the color you painted or was it one of the stock colors, no tinting?
Will the Behr product work on brick as well? I'm thinking staining the brick is the way to go but this is the first time I've heard of this product.
I'd say why not? especially the bricks are rough so it might bond better than the concrete floor surface
How was the yielding? How is it holding up? I have heard a lot of negative reviews about expensive price, low yielding and peeling off prematurely.
sorry for the late reply, yes I heard it too but so far so good,! I guess it all depends where you are located? but I know this is not a permanent coating finish so it can be peel off after awhile!
Your granite grip seemed to roll out nice, not mine which was very thick.
It is thick , you just need to roll it evenly ? I figure it out that pouring it directly it was way better. I was also advice from proffesional who was specialize this kind of work to pour it out is the best to finish the job and to roll out easier
How much texture is it? Enough to not be slippery or slick when wet?
Texture were amazing! Two qoute is recomended
Great job !! the concrete bond you use, was it hard to apply? did you use a paint brush or roller to apply it?
thanks for watching! its very simple, use brush and rollers

Good job looks great, I noticed at the beginning of the video the front window sill needed some attention, I see you took care of that.
Putting the product on with the brush in the back and forth method is okay but the last stroke is a single stroke to smooth it out. This is called back brushing.
got it! thanks for the tips
Thanks for sharing this video.
What color it is ? Gray ?
Thanks for checking out!
Yes, most people go with this color.
If you go with this product? my tips is to
Make sure clean the surface properly if it is old
@@filcandiy Great ! Thanks 😊
@@TheNorthPilot no problem!
Has it peeled
It looks great, but it looks like it took about 2-3 gallons of paint? And, it looks like it's hard to apply, I was thinking about doing this myself but now I'm thinking maybe I should leave it up to a professional. Or, go with a regular paint for concrete versus Granite Grip.
Yes 3gallons .its different from a latex that a gallon cover about 300 sqft . The porch area was about 42" x 25ft.
Preparation was the hardest part specially if it was painted ,carpeted and glued down like this one here
@@filcandiy I just got my 25ftx10ft concrete space done and it took 8 gallons of paint, and I bought an extra gallon just for touch-ups. It goes on THICK, about half a millimeter, that's why you need so much compared to the paper thin film you need for latex. The layer is 10 times thicker, and you need 10 times as much paint for the same surface area as latex.
Also, prep work was a HUGE pain, as my space was just bare concrete that hat those faux grass "carpet" glued onto it, and then when the carpet glue failed after 10 years, it was just repainted with cheap concrete paint ON TOP on the old glue, which didn't last 6 months until it started peeling. My Ryobi brushless belt sander was a must have, especially since I couldn't transport a diamond grinder rental from home depot to the site.
The Granite Grip looks SO NICE! But I was disappointed that the 'tan" color was actually grey paint with little sand particles in it to give the "tan" color effect when looking at it from 5 feet away.
@@shippo72that was a big work but you did it? good job man!
I did my porch that’s only about 5’ by 10’ and did it all with a brush. Avoid the roller if you can results will be great by dabbing and going random directions. Concrete etch is a good idea and you can buy cost effective diamond cups for angle grinder on amazon and grind concrete with a garden hose dripping water for dust control. I haven’t tried a primer underneath but purchased 6 gals to work with on 2 properties
@@amthevision8931 great idea, i'll check that one on amazon ,might make the job easier for my next project
Do I have to use stripper if i don't have any old paint?
no , you can go directly, just clean the area . I might give lightly sand it for better bonding
Did this cover the cracks in concrete?
sorry for the late reply, yes it did ! as long as the crack is smaller than 1/4" of inch you should be ok. thanks!
Is it hard to apply on a vertical surface?
yes it's harder!
Did you use adhesive roller
yes ! 1/4 adhesive roller
Lasted 9 months in northern Utah weather.
Its all depends on the weather I guess? It's just turned One year and still looks good. I did it for a customer
I heard it is not good for places that have harsh winters.
@@vaderladyl not really sure about that? The one we did, still looks good just like how it was and its over a year ago
@@filcandiy You sure lucked out and got a nice, resistant finish. I am not that confident in using it on my own porch, yet.
@@vaderladyl I heard it to from home owner who did it for themselves. I just got lucky I guess!
I believe you, anything can happen? because these are just top coats only. even those liquid resurfacing cement, they don't last forever. I did my front porch 3 years ago but some areas started cracking up and lifting up.
I put sealer, put the best recommended paint. The result is:
It was not even last 1 winter. I live in Southern Ontario. I bought product from Home Depot near my house. I will assume the product should resist the snow, rainy days of Ontario. Woop, one winter it starts to flick. This is my second winter past, I am using potty knife to pick out all the flicks. I picked tge cottage red color skin. You can image how that ended to look like.
I strongly recommend: do not do it.!
This flakes off pretty rapidly from experience...
so far so good! It's now a year and nothing has changed
Then you didn't prep your surface right this stuff is remarkably more durable than 2 part epoxy floor coatings. Although 2 part epoxy paint is proving to be quite durable as well with a lot less prep
@@ska-hooterr5467 I don't know and who knows but some had the same issue but say they followed the steps to the letter. I don't know who to believe. I like the look but for the price and the low yielding per gallon I think it has too many issues.
Yeah man I not sure why some jobs peel up i personally have never had a job fail except when the clean /etch prep job fell short or if I've redone stain or epoxy like if I tried to renew by rethrowing some granite on top of old granite grip it seems to have a higher chance of failling. I do these quite often and prep has now become where I focus most attention over all. I use dawn, rinse then oxy degreaser like mold armor L remediation then scrape possibly acid wash then I down again and my final sep is to take moving blankets and spread them out flat and dump about 1 5 gal bucket of acetone all over the blankets and let em sit soaked for 1minute the acetone keeps long enough tosofren any remaining anything then I work those blankets around o floor as I pickem up. I know it's a lot of work but It works for rustomleum floors, behr, Craftsman, ace etc. Good fortunes
@@ska-hooterr5467
That's right on bout that acetone I just recently heard of and seen someone use those blankets on a car hood though. After like 30 seconds of that( canvas)tarp laying on it he just pressed form and wiped it off to bare metal. There was a few spots had to be recleaned but what I'm walking away with for sure is that acetone needs to be the LAST thing that touches that floor before you paint or stain and stay away from behr primers! They cause floors to fail
We did this and very disappointed. It didn’t hold up. We did all the prep work. Powered washed and acid washed. Very expensive. Going to tile now, we should have done tile in the first place. Behr is a good paint but stay away from this product!
oh no! sorry to hear what happened?and I know it is not also cheap plus the work you put in to it
we thought about tile for our from area.. but by the time we select the slate/stone tile look.. along with labor.. the price of the project will balloon to at least 1200-1700 for labor and materials.. so we going to try this product..
